Seeing some fabric down within the dam, it makes me wonder if this has not happened before. The reason I say that is if a person had a breech they might have patched the breech, layered fabric over both the patched area and the adjacent portion of the dam, then covered the fabric with dirt. The thinking being the fabric could tie in the new patch with the old dam and the extra dirt over it would add strength.

May not be the case at all, but that is what I thought of when I saw the fabric down within the dam. Looks like something I might have thought of trying to fix a breech.
